Introduction to the modules in their environment

Introduction

The TSX CSY 84 and TSX CSY 164 modules are double format application-specific modules from the Premium range that can be mounted in the TSX RKY•• rack of a TSX/PCI 57 PLC station. They are one of the elements of the SERCOS® offer for Premium/Atrium PLCs enabling the creation of a multi-axis control system.

Introduction of the elements of the SERCOS® offer for Premium PLCs

The SERCOS® offer for the Premium PLC is composed of the following elements:

a TSX/PCI 57 PLC station composed of:
- one or more racks,
- power supply modules,
- a processor module,
- the different modules required by the project.

one or more TSX CSY 84 or TSX CSY 164 multi-axis control modules enabling each one to control up to 8 servodrives within a SERCOS® network.

a range of 5 LEXIUM MHDS servodrives,

a range of motors,

plastic fiber optic cables (0.3 to 16.5 meters long):
- that ensure physical connection of the modules/servodrives and servodrives/servodrives in a ring network structure,
- that servoserve as media for the digital link between the TSX CSY 84 or TSX CSY 164 module (master) and the servodrives (slaves); this digital link is defined by European standard EN61491.

Control Expert is used to configure the TSX CSY 84 and TSX CSY 164 modules and program the motion project.

UniLink LXM 17 software for setting up and making adjustments to servodrives.
